Dog fighting

[MidnightMike]

I just watched the program on 20 / 20 and im digusted.

Infact im speechless with anger, someone give me a rifle.

What do you guys think?

[chanceyy]

I totally feel for the poor animals that suffer so farken badly .. for what sport, its not sport its barbaric .. hey why do we not get the ppl involved to fight each other til the death ... at the end we can just shoot the fucker left

saw a bit of it myself.....sucks big time..in the end when they were going to show that video i just turned it off.cant believe the pathetic punishment the court dished out....AGAIN.

Specially the bit where one dog gives up and they let the other one tear it apart for no reason.

[bobsmith]

Well I think we should just get a gun and Kill all the d....

Hang on, I don't think most people here wants me to finish that sentence...

[Dooly]

That chick they interviewed was oh so smug......would'nt be surprised if she was involved somehow.

People involved in dog fighting need to a dose of ZyklonB.

WINJA's dog is a prize fighter. It gets stuck in it's opponents throat and choke's them to death.

The death penalty for dog fighting?
Shit, I hope none of you guys become politicians.

dog fighting... not cool!

I forced myself to watch this and I was absolutely disgusted. Sport? Sport my arse, that kind of thing may have been considered 'sport' in the days of the gladiators, but it certainly isn't today. I have never seen anything so horrifying in all my life and that incident mentioned above was one of the worst. How could any HUMAN condone dog fighting, let alone let the fight continue when one animal was obviously beaten and almost dead, is way beyond my comprehension.

As my husband pointed out, the guy who owned the dogs got a piddly fine and community service, yet the couple selling some 'melt your fat' product copped a fine of $800,000. All they did was tell lies about what their product could do, they didn't kill anyone.

And as for that 'photographer' cow, she needs a damned good slapping. She obviously covers the fights for them and probably makes good money from it too. She was just as bad as the rest of them.

And as for the roll call of all the missing dogs, I almost cried.

Fooking right, wheres my local NF office, I wanna sign up and clean this planet of lefty scumbags..

Animal cruelty...BIG NO NO.

Where did I put that

[Badcat]

yeah.
"people" with no skills at fighting getting someone else to do it and take the risk for a willing audience.
big men, obviously.

hmmm - dog fighting - international military action.....
am i the only one who sees a parallel?

I also agree that is was totally dishusting and very disturbing to watch.

I also can't believe the pittyful little sentence the guy got. But at least we know that the cops and SPCA are out there trying to stop this from happening. But unfortunatley because all that the guy got was basically a slap on the hand and a little "your a naughty boy" attitude.

If I remember correctly a few months back some teenager was charged with throwing a puppy in the air and kicking it on its way down... and his community service was about the same amount of time... IMO this guy should have recieved actual jail time and not just community service.

Like they said at the end of the programme, he is banned from having dogs now, but he will no doubt still play a big part in future dog fights, whether he has dogs or not...

Those types of dogs do have the killer instinct, but subjecting them to that is plain wrong!

Personally I don't agree with Dog fightin, should make these arse oles indulge in a little cage fightin themselves...see how they like it one on one...or Dogs on one.....

If I catch anyone abusing an animal they're gone....

Ok - It was sickening to watch. And you've got to be a bit sick to enjoy watching it.

However here's an arguement in defence of the 'sport'. (I'm playing devil's avocado):

These dogs enjoy fighting (did you see their tails wagging and the way they strained to get at one another?). If the owners of the respective dogs stopped the fight once it became apparent that one dog was seriously infured - what harm is there in allowing two consenting animals to have a fight?

Freewill? Animal rights (to choose)? Instinct?

Please discuss.....
